The Community Chest of Korea (Chairman Kim Byungjun) announced that S-OIL (CEO Anwar Al Hejazi) participated in the Hope 2026 Sharing Campaign by donating a total of 54,882,786 won in bonus card points collected together with its customers.


The donation ceremony was held on December 10 at the Community Chest of Korea Hall in Jung-gu, Seoul, and was attended by Lee Youngho, Head of Sales Strategy Division at S-OIL; Bae Dongsung and Jeon Jinju, customer representatives; Hwang Insik, Secretary General of the Community Chest of Korea; and Lee Seongdo, Head of Fundraising Business Division, among others.


This donation was made by adding S-OIL's 1:1 matching contribution to the 27,441,393 won in bonus card points donated by S-OIL customers throughout 2025, and will be used to support the self-reliance preparation of children and adolescents who are about to leave protective care.


Since 2005, S-OIL has allowed customers to donate 50% of the points accumulated through fuel purchases, with the company matching the same amount to create the donation fund. The cumulative donation amount has reached approximately 730 million won as of this year, establishing itself as a leading long-term donation program jointly created by the company and its customers.


Since 2023, donations have been made possible through the 'MY S-OIL App' and the 'Bonus Card Website,' and the donation benefit for the 'Community Chest of Korea Bonus Card' has been expanded from 2 won to 3 won per liter, further strengthening the foundation for customer participation.


Hwang Insik, Secretary General of the Community Chest of Korea, said, "I sincerely thank S-OIL and its customers for more than 20 years of unwavering commitment to sharing," adding, "The funds you have contributed will be used with great care to help children and adolescents who are about to leave protective care prepare for independent living in a healthy way."


The Community Chest of Korea launched its year-end and New Year fundraising campaign, the 'Hope 2026 Sharing Campaign,' on December 1. Under the slogan "Giving That Adds Happiness, Changing Tomorrow Through Giving," the campaign will be simultaneously conducted by all 17 regional branches nationwide for 62 days until January 31 next year.



The fundraising goal for this campaign is 450 billion won, and the "Love Thermometer" rises by one degree for every 4.5 billion won raised, which is 1% of the target amount. As of December 10, the Love Thermometer's sharing temperature stands at 35.2 degrees.
